Getting into this market early seems to make a lot of sense, it has huge
potential but competition is probably going to be fierce and it will
become commoditised, so make a buck and move on.

Data is data, telecom has been overcharging for toll phone calls for
years, in fact most incumbants have. Here we have a system that allows
the end user to treat a phone call as data from a local point to
anywhere, so the cost is minimal, just as it is in reality for Telecom.

You have to wonder just how long such traditional telco business models
will survive, which is probably why Telecom is trying to re-invent
itself as a IT company.
